Undersea cables stories
Submarine communications cables provide essential links between countries and continents, carrying
telecommunications signals across oceans and seas. Undersea cables are of particular significance in
New Zealand, providing the primary internet links to the world via Australia and the United States. While
protected by multiple layers keeping the salt and pressure of the ocean out, the core of every undersea
cable is an optic fibre no thicker than a human hair.
